haha i think this is the 3rd or 4th reply telling us all what Wikipedia says Battalion meansFrom Wikipedia, so i have no idea as to its correctness:The Richard Devine demo makes this one definitely interesting. It is too pricey for me right now, but I will demo it for sure by myself at some point. However, I feel that the name of this drum synth is inappropriate. I do not get why someone thinks that militarization is cool.
"The word "battalion" came into the English language in the 16th century from the French bataillon "battle squadron" (compare Italian battaglione with the same meaning), derived from Vulgar Latin battalia "battle" and ultimately from Classical Latin battuere "to beat or strike." The first use of the word in English was in the 1580s."
So its original latin meaning of to beat or strike would seem to fit with drums.
